Reggie: Well, wasn't it Shakespeare that said, "When strangers do meet in far off lands, they should e'er long see each other again"?

Peter: Shakespeare never said that!

Reggie: How do you know?

Peter: It's terrible. You just made it up.

Audrey Hepburn’s Skincare and Makeup Tips:

Use Moisturiser, Water and Yogurt:

“I use a lot of moisturisers and oils because I have rather a dry skin. But my beauty secrets are really just common sense. Pure water is one of the best things for your skin. I also leave yogurt on my face for about 30 minutes, before I wash it off.”

Soap and Water:

“I’ve always been a soap-and-water girl. It’s part of being an (Erno) Laszlo girl, which I have been for years. Working in the theatre, I’ve seen what not removing makeup well can really do to the skin, so I’m very careful about that. I do believe that good health is the key to good skin; if your skin isn’t good, it’s a signal that something is wrong.”

Makeup:

“I went through years of heavy film makeup before I met Dr. Erno Laszlo, who taught me a lot. Did you know, for instance, that all that makeup can be nourishing and protective? And I get lots of fresh air and sleep; not too much sun.”

“I never use much makeup. Only on my eyes, and I do them more or less as I always have… black liner and mascara, dark-brown eyebrow pencil. I use a brownish shadow in the crease of the eyelid and leave the lid itself natural… also the bony part below the eyebrow; sometimes, at night, I put a little opalescent highlight there… I’ve tried all the pretty greens and purples but they didn’t suit me. And I use a very, very pale lipstick. No base… no foundation. It isn’t a question of wanting to look the same; I prefer an un-made look simply because it’s better for me.”

“For myself, I never put on makeup base, never powder. I just makeup my eyes, and then in the winter, if I’m feeling a bit green, I’ll use a little rouge. That’s it.”
